ASC Steel Deck has completed a comprehensive assessment of how our products may contribute toward projects being designed to meet USGBC’s LEED v4 and 4.1. rating system. It is important to note that project teams currently pursuing LEED v4 may have the opportunity to apply the LEED v4.1 credits and prerequisites in place of the LEED v4 language, allowing teams to take advantage of credits that may be more accessible for their project.
